User manual RUSSELL HOBBS RETRO 2 SLICE TOASTER

[. . . ] 9 If the bread carriage becomes jammed during the toasting cycle don't try to release it. Switch off the power socket (if appropriate), unplug the toaster, and leave it to cool down before carefully removing the bread. Don't use a knife, fork, or other sharp implement ­ you'll damage the elements. 10 Don't toast "buttered" items or try to make toasted sandwiches in the toaster, as this will create a fire hazard. [. . . ] 3 Put bread into the toasting slots (maximum thickness of bread 28mm 18 inch). 4 Slide the browning control to the required setting (1 = light, 6 = dark). 5 Press the bread carriage handle down fully ­ it won't lock down unless the toaster is connected to the electricity supply. 6 When it's done, the toast will pop up, and the elements will turn off automatically. To stop the toaster before it's finished, press the 5 button. The toast will pop up, and the elements will turn off. eject 5 bagel b The bagel button heats only the outer elements. Split your bagel, put the two halves into the slots with the cut sides towards the outside elements. Leave the browning control at your favoured setting, lower the bread carriage handle, then press the b button. The cut sides will be toasted, the "outside" of the bagel will just be warmed. There's no need to adjust the browning control. Insert the toast, lower the bread carriage handle, then press the m button. The light at the side of the button will come on, the toast will be given a short burst of heat, then pop up. You must only reheat plain, "unbuttered" toast. This feature takes the guesswork out of toasting frozen bread. Leave the browning control at your favoured setting, insert the frozen bread, lower the bread carriage handle, then press the f button. The light at the side of the button will come on, and the toasting time will be altered automatically to give the same degree of browning you get with unfrozen bread. reheating toast m frozen bread f extra lift After toasting small items (bagels, crumpets, etc. ) the bread carriage handle may be raised further, to allow them to be removed more easily. 4 hints and tips · When toasting more than one slice of bread, use slices of similar size, thickness and freshness. · Old (yesterday's) bread makes crisper toast than fresh bread, as it contains less moisture. · Old or thin bread will cook faster than fresh or thick bread, so use a lower setting. · Don't use torn, curled up, or misshapen slices of bread as these may jam the ejection mechanism and could catch fire. · Sweet bread products (tea cakes, fruit loaf, etc. ) brown much more quickly than ordinary bread, so should be toasted on a lighter setting. care and maintenance First ­ unplug the toaster and let it cool down fully. [. . . ] If you remove the plug, dispose of it. 5 6 7 service The product isn't user-serviceable. If it's not working, read the instructions, check the plug fuse and main fuse/circuit breaker.
